it is very hard to carry things with crutches.
How about rigging something to a pair of suspenders, and pull a lightweight cart behind you?
or you could rent one of those very small electric mobility gizmos like they have in the supermarket, and use it for the next
month until you're back up to speed. It could carry tools also...
Or even a backpack like the kids wear...go snitch one from one of the grandkids!
Someday my arthritis is going to put me in a wheelchair, though hopefully a long time from now, so I've been thinking about this a bunch. How do you get on a boat, up into your tractor, when you can't support your own weight.
I think there is a thread going somewhere here on this topic. ?
Someone blessed me with broad shoulders, figuratively and literally, but my ability to hold up those broad and heavy shoulders is becoming increasingly more difficult. And I'm not old... let me repeat that...
Nadene is comfortable in her bed in the hospital and I'm going to surprise her with a second trip, with roses, two creme filled donuts, and the stuff she forgot on the first trip. Luckily it's only an hour away, right past the Bryn Athyn Cathedral, which is like something out of Europe plopped down in North Philadelphia. I almost want to put the car window down and see if I can hear the choir and the lowest stop and rumble of the organ. Organs and carillions, weird, I was sure not raised in a church with them. Maybe that's why I find them so neat. And humbling, like looking up at the ceiling in that cathedral.
got to go. my wife was quite
chipper on the phone and was ordering lunch. wait til she sees her dessert...:dance1:
